Scientific paper

Elastoplastic and constitutive equation theories are two approaches based on very different assumptions for creating a continuum theory for the stress distributions in a static sandpile. Both models produce the same surprising prediction that in a two dimensional granular pile constructed at its angle of repose, the outside wedge will be on the verge of failure. We show how these predictions can be tested experimentally.
